Abstract

Systems, devices, and methods for segmenting image data and utilizing image data having different pixel densities are described. One or more image capture devices can capture vehicle-related image data, which can be segmented such that regions of the image data which are directed to important content and/or far away content can have higher pixel density than regions of the image data directed to less important content and/or content close the one or more image capture devices. Image analysis is performed on the segmented image data. Output image data is generated of a lower pixel density to reduce storage and/or transmission requirements.

Abstract

Systems, methods, models, and training for collision detection and near miss detection are discussed. Models are trained to identify collisions and near misses between two vehicles, based on how quickly a bounding box size changes for a vehicle represented in image data. Rapidly changing bounding box size is indicative of extreme proximity between vehicles, and thus indicative of collision or near-miss scenarios. Identifications of collisions or near misses can be reported to a remote operator, to send emergency assistance, perform driver evaluation, or alert other drivers in the area of risks.

Abstract

An electric harness for supplying electric power from a primary electronic device to a secondary electronic device that makes inrush current demands. The electric harness includes a main branch with a current limiter, and a secondary branch with an electric energy storage device. When the secondary electronic device makes an inrush current demand, the electric energy storage device supplies an auxiliary electric current in the auxiliary branch which when added to a main current in the main branch, meets the inrush current demands.

Abstract

An electronic device powered by a solar panel and a rechargeable battery. The electronic device prevents draining of the rechargeable battery through the solar panel when the solar panel is unable to provide sufficient energy to power the electronic device. The electronic device prevents unnecessary charging and discharging of the rechargeable battery by disconnecting the rechargeable battery when the rechargeable battery is fully charged. The electronic device detects and reports a defective rechargeable battery by powering the electronic device off of the solar panel. The electronic device detects and handles brownout conditions when powered by the solar panel by re-connecting the rechargeable battery.

Abstract

The present systems, devices, and methods relate to managing vehicle battery charging. Payment for charging is preauthorized, and a receipt for preauthorization is sent from a payment management device to a user device when the user device has access to internet or cellular communications. This preauthorization receipt is later sent from the user device to a charge station where internet or cellular communication is not available, to enable charging of the vehicle battery at the charge station. Another receipt is sent from the charge station to the user device after charging of the vehicle, indicating a payment amount for actual energy used to charge the battery. Later, when the user device has access to cellular or internet communications, the user device sends the receipt indicating payment amount for actual energy used to the payment management device, for final payment balancing.

Abstract

Systems, methods, models, and training data for models are discussed, for determining vehicle positioning, and in particular identifying tailgating. Simulated training images showing vehicles following other vehicles, under various conditions, are generated using a virtual environment. Models are trained to determine following distance between two vehicles. Trained models are used in detection of tailgating, based on determined distance between two vehicles. Results of tailgating are output to warn a driver, or to provide a report on driver behavior. Following distance over time is determined, and simplified following distance data is generated for use at a management device.

The present systems, devices, and methods relate to managing shared vehicle access. Authorization policies are stored at a network device, and are provided to vehicle devices. Authorization policies each include an authentication scheme, a list of permitted vehicle operations, and a list of requirements to perform vehicle operations. In this way, whether even if a user is authenticated to access a vehicle, vehicle access is controlled based one whether the user is permitted to perform vehicle operations, and whether requirements are met to perform vehicle operations. This provides a flexible and robust vehicle access system. Authorization Policies are distributed to vehicle device in an Access Configuration, which can be updated.

Abstract

Systems, methods, models, and training data for models are discussed, for determining vehicle positioning, and in particular identifying tailgating. Simulated training images showing vehicles following other vehicles, under various conditions, are generated using a virtual environment. Models are trained to determine following distance between two vehicles. Trained models are used in detection of tailgating, based on determined distance between two vehicles. Results of tailgating are output to warn a driver, or to provide a report on driver behavior. Following distance over time is determined, and simplified following distance data is generated for use at a management device.

Abstract

A synchronized data set is generated from multiple asynchronous data sets. An interpolated data set is generated for each asynchronous data set, at a higher data rate than recorded data rates for the asynchronous data sets. The interpolated data for each data set is then sampled at a lower data rate which is common to all the interpolated data sets. The sampled data points are synchronized between the different data sets, such that the sampled data points represent a synchronized data set. Input telematic data can be reduced to inflection points in the telematic data, and interpolation and sampling of asynchronous data sets can be limited to threshold time periods around the inflection points.

Abstract

Devices and methods for detecting an end of trip by an asset tracker are described. An end of trip may be detected using a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) module or an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU), such as a three-axis accelerometer. In some implementations, the asset tracker uses the IMU for end of trip detection. In other implementations, the asset tracker uses the IMU for impact detection while using the GNSS module for end of trip detection.

Abstract

Described herein are examples of a system that processes information describing movement of a vehicle at a time related to a potential collision to reliably determine whether a collision occurred and/or one or more characteristics of the collision. In response to obtaining information regarding a potential collision, data describing movement of the vehicle before and/or after a time associated with the potential collision is analyzed to determine whether the collision occurred and/or to determine one or more collision characteristic(s). The analysis may be carried out at least in part using a trained classifier that classifies the vehicle movement data into one or more classes, where at least some the classes are associated with whether a collision occurred and/or one or more characteristics of a collision. If a collision is determined to be likely, one or more actions may be triggered based on the characteristic(s) of the collision.

Abstract

Systems, methods, models, and training data for models are discussed, for determining vehicle positioning, and in particular identifying tailgating. Simulated training images showing vehicles following other vehicles, under various conditions, are generated using a virtual environment. Models are trained to determine following distance between two vehicles. Trained models are used to in detection of tailgating, based on determined distance between two vehicles. Results of tailgating are output to warn a driver, or to provide a report on driver behavior.
